Why I Love This Recipe
Having Friends over for happy hour? This is perfect! Remember all of the below ingredients can be adjusted to taste. You can use white wine like sauv blanc or Sancerre as well! Add superfine sugar if you like a sweeter drink. You can use flavored seltzers instead of club soda. The point is the recipe is flexible so have fun!
